Compound Mutations of the COL4A3 including a Novel Allele Identified in a Patient with Alport Syndrome

<div>Light microscopy (a, b) and electron microscopy (c) of the patient’s renal biopsy. One glomerulus showed mild mesangial hyperplasia, thickened glomerular capillary walls, and swelled podocytes. Electron microscopy demonstrated markedly irregular subendothelial GBM surface with splitting and “basket weaving” (black arrow).</div>
